O'BRIEN CREATES A STIR
REFUSES TO ASSOCIATE WITH THE
DYNAMITERS.


NEW YoRK, June Arrangements for
the grand parade, to be participated IN by
5000 men, were made for tonight, in honor
o. Mr. O'Brien, but less than oue-ffth of
that number paraded The line was very
slow in forming. Editor O'Brien and Mr.
Kilbride were to have been with the Com
mittee of Arrangements in the car
eiages, but he did not attend.
and everywhere was heard the aues-
ton, Where is OBrienm Mr.. O'Brien
was at the Hoffman House, and
he did not appear in the parade A sub
committee of the committee of arrange
ments waited upon him, To them he said
he would not leave the hotel 1t is under
stood THAI he objected to the presence of
Mr. John McMackin, who was to preside at
thesp.1lers' stand. Mr. McMackin presided
at the meeting in the Cooper Union Tuesday
night, at which P. j. P. lyman, the "Mysteri-
Gus No. l." spoke and applauded his extreme
remarks. Mr. O'Brien, who advocates
peaceful measures in the righting of Ire
lands wrongs, could not afford to place him
self in a position to be criticised.
o'BRIEN's GOOD REASONS,
the ocean that he, a member of Parliament,
was consorting with dynamiters and ex-
trenists in America. 1t was thought that
Mr.. O'Brien could be got to appear if Mr..
McMackin was removed from the stand, but
the Central Labor Union and the United
Labor Party would not agree to that. Thus
it was that the procession moved without
him. There were at the outside 10000
men in the line The line of march was
down Fifth avenue to Seventeenth street
then to Union Square, where the procession
passed in review and was dismissed. Mr.
John McMaclin spoke on the grand stand.
After an eulogy of Mr.. O'Bren he suddenly
changed his manner and closed as follows:
WARM LANGUAGE.
Zone whom we had expected to see here
tonight has not seen fit to show himself
Perhaps when O'Brien gets through being
dined and wined by the Kellys and the
O'Donohues and the rest, perhaps then he
may find time to greet those VINO are here to
meet him. He may find that the Irish are
not to be led by corrupt crowd of politi-
Clans" During the time McMackin was
speaking the head of the procession reached
the stand. DIR. McGlynn stood at
the front of the platform and
reviewed the line He was fire.
quently greeetd with prolonged cheers.
The Slxty-nnth regiment came in the van
and following it were several companies of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians Then
came a large delegation of the Socialistic
labor party, with them being parties carry
ing floral pillar inscribed on either side
Home Rule" and welcome, O'Brienp
There were numerous halts and waits, but
the paraders came to a halt on the north side
of Seventeenth street as fast as they ar
rived. Rabbi Brown was intro
duced while the parade was passing
and spoke briefly. There were fully 10000
peoble gathered in the vicinity of the stand
in Union Square, the crowd OVERLOOKING
into Broadway and Fourth avenue. Among
those on the gaily decorated platform, were
Henry George, Rev. DR.. McGlynn, Police
Commissioners Voorhis, John McMackin,
. Dennis Mcbride, ex-Judge Tucker, Rabbi
Brown and host of local labor leaders and
agitators. Capt Williams and a squad of
$50 officers were on hand. But aside from
keeping the crowd within the proper limits,
their services were not required. AS
soon as Dr. McGlynn was esped the
crowd cheered itself hoarse.
DR.. MGLYNN's SHARP CRITICISMS.
James P. Archibald said that if Mr..
O'Brien had any feeling in common with
the people he would never have insulted the
Labor party by refusing TO speak on the
same platform with John McMackin. DR..
McGlynn, who was loudly cheered on rising
to speak, said that they had assembled to
greet MIR. OBrien, not as a man or an indi-
vidual, for many of them knew little
about him and cared less
for his mere personality, but
for the sake of the cause he represented. If
Mr. O'Brien had been so ill-advised they
could not blame him as they did those who
advised him. 1t was a shocking thing after
having been honored by the invitation of
the United Labor party, Knights of Labor
and the Central Labor Union to dare to die
tate to them and to scratch and cross out
portions of the resolutions. The message
they wished to send to the people of Ireland
A great deal of dissatisfaction
was expressed about Mr.. O'Brien
not appearing, and when it was an
nounced that the reason for his not appear
ing was on account of John McMackin's
presiding, a considerable uproar was
created. A committee waited on Mr..
OBrien at the Hoffman House yesterday
afternoon and submitted to him the
resolutions to be read at the meet
ing. He told the committee he could not
De present unless certain portions of the
resolutions relating to DR.. McGlynn Were
stricken out. This the committee refused
to do: Mr.. O'Brien then told the gentlemen
Il John McMackin was permitted to preside
be could not come The following are the
resolutions:
BE n rcsotred By the ,uo;'lting people OF
